Balti House 2025

We had a night out at the Bombay Express Balti House in Southsea to celebrate the New Year :-)

It's a big year for us this year with GCSEs, Final Year at Uni, Turning 60 etc.   Have a great one everyone.

Pompey 4 v 0 Swansea

What a start to 2025.  Pompey beat Swansea 4v0 :-)

Amazing.  Play Up Pompey.   Joe's happy...

Yomp 2024

It's our annual New Year Yomp.  The lads arm wrestling at Chalkie and Emma's house...

James Plimmer joined us this year... 

Not sure what this is.  Maybe a portal to another dimension...or the kitchen :-) 

The traditional beer pong at Paul and Deb's

A great Yomp as always.  Happy New Year all :-)

Bristol Footy & Helens

Me and Joe popped into Bristol on the way home from Lyme to see Pompey play Bristol City.

Papa was talking about a great Bristol City player called John Ateyo, and there was a statue of him outside the ground...

We got battered in the match.  Pompey lost 0 v 3.

We cheered ourselves up at Helen and Gareth's with a good catch up and lovely take away curry :-)

Lyme Regis Christmas II

We had a lovely second Christmas at Lyme Regis with Karen's Mum and Dad, Mark, Rebecca and all the cousins...

On the Cobb...

A Sneaky pint in the Volunteer pub.  Our favourite.

Merry Christmas all.

Watford 2 v 1 Pompey

We went to Pompey's Boxing Day game at Watford today with Ned and his dad Stuart.   Here are the boys with Graham Taylor...

Bit of grub before the game...

Pompey did OK, but managed to snatch defeat from jaws of victory after throwing away a 1 nil lead.  Watford scored in the 95th minute to win it 2v1.
